The Frances Crittenden Nurse Practitioner Scholarship was created to fund an annual award of at least $100 to be given to a Nurse Practitioner student in the MCG School of Nursing. The award is to be given to a senior nurse practitioner student who has demonstrated excellence and creativity in course work and clinical NP practice. MCG Nurse Practitioner Program faculty will nominate candidates with final selection made by the School of Nursing Scholarship Committee based on these additional factors: (1) The recipient demonstrates caring behaviors with peers, faculty and patients and shows evidence of involvement in MCG community and/or professional activities;
(2) The recipient shows evidence of increased personal awareness and growth through sensitivity to others as well as superior communication skills and accountability.
